there’d always be a smoking gun who’d up and lose his cool.

I never thought I’d have to say I’m sorry, my love, because

I’m the fool I never, fool I never thought I was.

C G F - G C

2. I left my dreams with broken strings, it’s time I learned to talk,

stop falling over things, teach myself to walk.

I’m not a superman or mister wonderful, because

I’m the fool I never, fool I never thought I was.

I hope you’ll always let me be your only one.
